Коли St. Patrick's Day у 2026?
St. Patrick's Day honors Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, who brought Christianity to Ireland in the 5th century. The holiday originated as a Catholic feast day in the early 17th century. Irish immigrants, particularly in the US, transformed it into a secular celebration of Irish culture.
People wear green, attend parades, and enjoy Irish food and drink. The shamrock, associated with St. Patrick's teaching of the Holy Trinity, is a key symbol. Cities dye rivers green, and buildings worldwide are illuminated in green light.
Chicago dyes its river green since 1962. In Dublin, the multi-day festival features parades and concerts. In Montserrat (Caribbean), it's a public holiday celebrating both Irish heritage and a failed slave uprising. Tokyo holds one of Asia's largest St. Patrick's Day parades.
